Technical Support could have been better with their support. Turnaround time they take to reply back to our issues takes longer.
It also failed to generate logs at times.

Amazing for the small it departments. Very easy to deploy and manage while providing great protection. To do not need a whole SOC to manage and monitor these.

Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
la réponse du support doit encore être améliorée. Meilleure communication et meilleurs ingénieurs de support nécessaires.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Meilleur retour sur investissement pour les clients recherchant un pare-feu d'entrée de gamme. Ainsi que l'arrêt de nombreuses attaques par ransomware.
All the features the CTO asks for while keeping the CFO happy also (great value!)
What do you like best about the product?
The Sophos XG is easy to manage. The user interface is simple and intuitive. If you need to step into the CLI, there is plenty of documentation for that as well. The built-in support for the easy-to-interface REDs tunnels is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have not had any problems with the Sophos XG series. Dollar for feature, the Sophos XG line is a fantastic value. We previously had used Cyberoam products, and the Sophos acquisition and enhanced development of the product have been a blessing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With working from home becoming a "new normal", I am able to easily segregate traffic and control Internet bandwidth in my home/office, allocating the resource as needed without needing a separate connection from my ISP. Filtering content for the "non-employee" individuals at my workplace is a huge benefit.
J'ai eu beaucoup de succès avec les pare-feu Sophos XG.

La facilité de travailler avec le filtrage de contenu pour contrôler l'accès des utilisateurs.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Il a fallu un peu de pratique pour s'habituer à l'interface.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Le principal problème résolu était l'accès sécurisé des utilisateurs distants et les contrôles de sécurité pour l'accès à Internet. Au cours de l'année écoulée, nous avons réalisé la puissance de la plateforme avec une charge supplémentaire d'utilisateurs distants.
Great Firewall, Great Ecosystem
What do you like best about the product?
Sophos XG Firewall is easy to configure and use, but extremely flexible and powerful. Sophos provides excellent training on their products (including the XG firewall), and their support is very helpful. You can download a free trial at any point and setup a test virtual firewall on spare hardware (or as a VM) to become familiar with the firewall and features without any type of commitment or limitation. They also provide a free version of their virtual firewall for home use.
What do you dislike about the product?
There have been some bugs in the XG / SFOS firewall versions, and some feature parity discrepancies between the older firewall OS (UTM) and the XG firewall OS (SFOS), but Sophos has made excellent strides in resolving those issues. The latest major release (SFOS v18) has added an impressive level of flexibility and customization to adapt to modern requirements for firewalls.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sophos XG firewalls work excellently as a one stop solution for routing, firewalling, webserver protection, email gateway, VPN appliance, and more. Sized properly, the firewalls provide more than adequate capacity and throughput. The reporting and Sophos Central integration are excellent, and allow for secure remote administration and great scheduled reporting. The Synchronized Security with Sophos InterceptX for servers and workstations is fantastic, and lets you easily view the applications running in your environment, as well as enforce greater levels of security when an endpoint is compromised.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sophos XG firewall is an excellent choice for a cost effective, feature packed, and security focused firewall. Their training is top notch, and easily accessible on demand. I have seen the Sophos XG firewall operating system and appliance features grow and mature over the years, and they are one of the best firewalls that I have had the pleasure of using.
Pare-feu supérieur
Qu'aimez-vous le plus à propos de the product?
Je devrais dire les fonctionnalités de sécurité complètes et Sophos Central.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Aucune plainte pour le moment. Souhaitons que nous ayons choisi Sophos plus tôt.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Besoins en cybersécurité
Good Firewall
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can log in to sophos Central to manage and view status on all my firewalls at different sites. Easy to use, for the most part. I am a novice with firewall management, and was still able to figure things out.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I don't have a better understanding of how effective my firewall rules are... It would be nice to see logs that were a bit more intuitive to help firewall managers that aren't experts in how firewalls and sophos are supposed to work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have sites spread all over my state, and it is incredibly helpful to have the web interface where I can log into the firewall from anywhere, without relying on a local computer that I have to use remote software to log into. I also have peace of mind with the sophos advanced threat monitoring.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Solid unit, great performance and features, don't hesitate!
